Abstract: Systems and methods for utilizing inter-UE coordination regarding reserved resources of a sidelink (SL) resource pool are described herein. A first user equipment (UE) may identify that a first SL resource pool on a first radio access technology (RAT) overlaps with a second SL resource pool on a second RAT, sense for reservation signaling on the second SL resource pool to determine reserved resources on the second SL resource pool, and transmit resource reservation information indicating those reserved resources on SL on the first RAT. A second UE may receive the resource reservation information on the SL, identify, within the first SL resource pool, corresponding resources that overlap with the reserved resources of the second SL resource pool, select, from the first SL resource pool, transmission resources to use for a SL transmission by prioritizing resources other than the corresponding resources; and perform the SL transmission using those transmission resources.

Abstract: A cell receives channel state information for multiple transmission reception points (TRPs) from a user equipment (UE). The cell selects a first transmission reception point (TRP) of multiple TRPs associated with a cell of a network, transmits a signal to a user equipment (UE) via the selected TRP, wherein the signal is configured to trigger semi-persistent CSI (SP-CSI) report at the UE and receives the SP-CSI report from the UE that includes CSI corresponding to each TRP of the multiple TRPs.

Abstract: Configuring non-zero-power channel state information reference signal (NZP-CSI-RS) may include encoding a channel state information (CSI) configuration communication for transmission to a user equipment (UE) that is in connected mode with both a first transmission and reception point (TRP) associated with a serving cell and a second TRP associated with a neighbor cell. The NZP-CSI-RS configuration communication may establish a plurality of parameters for NZP-CSI-RS in the serving cell and the neighbor cell.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) associated with a wireless communication system is disclosed. The UE comprises a processor configured to receive a first downlink control information (DCI) for scheduling a first physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH). The first DCI includes a non-numerical (NN) value of K1 for hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ)-ACK feedback. The processor is further configured to determine a first priority class associated with the first PDSCH, and determine K1 value and priority class associated with one or more subsequent PDSCH received from the base station, until a selected PDSCH having a numerical K1 value and a same priority class as the first priority class is identified. Further, the processor is configured to provide HARQ feedback associated with the first PDSCH using a PUCCH/PUSCH occasion indicated by a second DCI scheduling the selected PDSCH.

Abstract: User equipment (UE) operation in a single frequency network (SFN). The UE may receive one or more transmission configuration indication (TCI) states corresponding to one or more downlink resources, receive a demodulated reference signal (DMRS) wherein the DMRS is quasi co-located (QCLed) with one or more channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) from multiple cells of a SFN and quasi co-location (QCL) information is included in the one or more TCI and determine a time and frequency offset corresponding to each of the multiple cells based on the CSI-RS.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for signaling in cast-type indication for a wireless communication system may include receiving, at a first user equipment (UE), a first stage sidelink control information (SCI) format from a second UE, decoding the first stage SCI format, determining a second stage SCI format using the decoded first stage SCI format, decoding the second stage SCI format, and determining a sidelink feedback status using the second stage SCI format. The sidelink feedback status may indicate whether sidelink feedback is enabled or not enabled. Second stage SCI content may include a distance setting associated with a communication range between the first UE and the second UE.

Abstract: Methods and devices for a base station acting as a primary cell to perform dual spectrum sharing (DSS) with a first user equipment device (UE) over a 5G NR connection and a second UE over an LTE connection. The first UE establishes the 5G NR connection with the primary cell and one or more secondary cells. One of the secondary cells is configured in the 5G NR connection to provide downlink control information to the UE for the primary cell, to avoid collisions by the primary cell with LTE control transmissions.
